I've looked at all of your posts, MVTS. You have little other than hate on the team and have offered little to the forum in general. Please keep things about discussions and on topic from here on out. Thank you!

Luckily he was banned, so we don't have to worry about that, haha.

bsaza2358 · 11-01-2010, 02:11 PM

I was going to recommend him for such a fate depending on his next post...

BEST NEWS EVER

Ellis Hobbs has been taking out of his starting lineup, and Dimitri Patterson will be assuming the RCB duties. Patterson isn't anything special, but he isn't Ellis Hobbs, so I'm happy.

cunningham06 · 11-01-2010, 08:48 PM

I trust my own abilities at CB over Ellis Hobbs.

Go_Eagles77 · 11-01-2010, 08:55 PM

To be honest, before the titans game, Hobbs actually played much better than I expected him to. That said, we could still do way better than him. Patterson plays really solid whenever given the chance, so I can't argue with this decision. The chances of drafting a CB in the 1st round next year look pretty high.

frubulubu · 11-01-2010, 10:19 PM

Yey!!! Hobbs has been demoted is great cause for rejoice!

IDK about much better, but he had been playing better than I thought. However his better than I expected still sucks floppy donkey dick.

I don't know who to take my anger out on now, Bell is gone and Hobbs has been demoted...

There is always Andy Reid and his clock management...

Yes, but IDK if anyone has noticed yet, but he is (at least) marginally better at that so far this year than the rest of his career. If he can get that completely fixed, I won't know what to do.

Honestly, I won't. At all.

bsaza2358 · 11-03-2010, 01:46 PM

Being in DC, one thing I did notice was that McNabb (even before his benching), was struggling with clock management and the hurryup. Maybe after all this time, it was McNabb + Reid and not just Reid...

That and your redzone efficiency is MUCH higher this year than it ever was under McNabb.

bsaza2358 · 11-03-2010, 01:55 PM

That is a function of a stronger running attack with McCoy and the effectiveness of Jackson and Maclin. Best WR group they've had in Philly ever. Add in the Vick running ability, and you have some explanation.

eaglesalltheway · 11-03-2010, 03:56 PM

It wasn't all on Reid, but he did seem to have a major problem with clock management. Now we haven't been any clutch situations yet where we need to maximize out time use for our offense yet, but at least it seems Reid has done a better job at saving timeouts and using them smarter in important situations. He is still a pretty crappy Challenge-er though, so that's the one bone I still have to pick.

bsaza2358 · 11-03-2010, 04:00 PM

There is an assistant that makes the call to challenge or not. There has been an issue of communication or judgment there from Reid and/or his replay guys.

eaglesalltheway · 11-03-2010, 04:03 PM

I'm aware there is someone up in the box in charge of "helping" Reid decide whether or not to challenge, I just hope they find better "help" soon.

bsaza2358 · 11-03-2010, 04:19 PM

I'm just saying it has been an issue for quite some time. In the end, you have to look at the guy holding the red flag. He makes the decision to gamble, and he loses way too often. Other coaches are far more successful. At this point, it's pretty clear that Reid either takes too much risks with the challenges or that his assistants use improper judgment when advising him.

Todd Bertuzzi · 11-07-2010, 06:50 PM

Thoughts:
-We better start negotiating an extension with Vick.
-Patterson looked solid, especially when you consider he was matched up against Wayne for the majority of the game.
-Graham looked solid when he was out there which is a good sign.
-Not much else to say. All in all it was a good effort.

superman8456 · 11-07-2010, 07:00 PM

I hope Nate Allen gets well soon. I'm still not quite sure what his injury is, however.

Keenan Clayton impressed me. I think we have something special in him. Still plenty of room for development, but I look forward to seeing this kid mature.

So many questionable calls throughout the game by the refs. Not to mention dumb challenges by Andy Reid.

Todd Bertuzzi · 11-07-2010, 07:03 PM

I was fine with the second challenge, especially with the our inability to get into the endzone. First one was bad, although it looked like the ball may have hit the ground. Still a poor time to use it though.

cunningham06 · 11-07-2010, 09:31 PM

How ******** was that call on Trent Cole grazing Peyton's helmet?

This team is looking legit with Mike Vick under center. I actually trust him when we are in the red zone, it's been a while since I've felt that way.

Go_Eagles77 · 11-07-2010, 09:43 PM

Does anyone remember that story about how Kurt Coleman paralyzed his teammate at practice in college and almost quit football because of it? I wonder what was going through his mind today.

TitanHope · 11-07-2010, 09:51 PM

I just wanna say that I love all ya'll so very much for beating the Colts today. I shall tell tales of you in my travels.

Listen, I know that we started out as foe. But after that courageous act that you showed me against the one they call Peyton, maybe someday we could become friends. Friends who ride majestic, translucent steeds, shooting flaming arrows across the bridge of Hemdale.
